It houses the Faculty Library. HistoryDivinity has been taught in the University of Cambridge since its foundation, in the early 13th century,[1] around the time the university itself was founded.[2] It is one of only two subjects to have been taught continuously, in some form or other, throughout the entire 800-year history of the university.[3]The first professorship instituted at the university, the Lady Margaret's Professor of Divinity, was dedicated to the subject, in 1502. Similarly, the next professorships to be established at the university – the Regius chairs, of 1540 – included the Regius Professor of Divinity. Beginning in 1879, the Faculty of Divinity was housed in the Selwyn Divinity School, constructed by Basil Champneys. Now known as The Old Divinity School, the building belongs to St John's College.[4] Since 2001, the Faculty has been situated on the university's Sidgwick Site,[5] in the west of the city.[6] ProfessorshipsSince the 16th century, the University of Cambridge has seen the institution of numerous professorships in different subject areas, beginning with divinity, civil law, physics, Hebrew, and Greek. The established chairs in the Faculty of Divinity include the following:
